Telex, EV, Midas, etc. being bought out

The modern world came knocking at Telex's door awhile ago, they've been getting ready for this. I used to talk to the Klark Teknik service guys all the time, and one guy in particular who did KT and Midas stuff for twenty years or so. A few months ago he told me they were going to be moving KT and Midas service to another location, with all new guys doing it. Basically that means young guys who know nothing about older gear, and the loss of all that experience to the owners of a lot of excellent gear. I understand, but it sucks to call and get some kid who was in grade school when your EQ was made, when the week before you were talking to a guy who saw the first one come off the line, and knows everything about them that there is to know. Especially since it's a well-made piece that will last another twenty years no problem. I'm sure a lot of customers are going to feel the same way. Telex is responsible for a lot of good brands, well-made long-lasting products. Hope they are a little more considerate with their other lines.

ps- good for them, finding a supporter with deep pockets in the audio world is like winning the lottery.
